Flameworking and Neon Studio
The term flameworking - traditionally known as lampworking - encompasses the many different types of glasswork created with a torch. Artists use glass rods or hollow glass tubes softened by the heat of the torch to create detailed sculptures, functional vessels, hollow forms, pendants and beads. UrbanGlass’ flameworking curriculum explores the basics of beadmaking all the way through the subtleties of detailed glass sculpture.
